4,905 hours TT - 4754 hours on Type = 151 hours on other types. As a passenger or as a SIC, ss this the kind of experience you want your captain to have ?
Aviation is not the same everywhere and therefore expectations should not be the same, it depends on where you are in the world.
In the UK (and most of Europe), we don't have much GA. We are a tiny island where fuel costs over 3 x as much as it costs you over in Canada. GA is therefore not economically viable here. Also, being a relatively small land mass our cities and towns are much closer together and not massively separated like the municipalities of remote regions in the US and Canada. We have a bigger need for transporting 100-200 people 500+ miles away then we do for transporting 10-25 people over the same distance or less. Our farm and food stock is transported by road as is most mail. We are surrounded by sea and sea ports all of which serve the country in one way or another! For these reasons and many more, smaller aircraft and turboprops don’t work as well for us as they do in other parts of the world. By my rough guess there are probably less than 50
Edit: 50 registered was wrong, I stand corrected but the essense of the message remains, at any one time there are over 10 times more jets flying than turboprops! UK registered turbo-prop or commercial 'light' aircraft flying with UK airlines today. Compare that to the number of jet aircraft of which there are over 500!
Therefore it is quite normal for a 200 hour pilot to come out of flight school and straight onto flying a large commercial aircraft because realistically that is the only place he will find a job. There are far more jet jobs available than there are instructing, air-taxi, banner towing, crop-dusting and dropping jobs put together. We just don’t have the aviation diversity to support the kind of “career progression” you guys look forward to and are so used to. It’s a different ball game over here. Also, the JAA fATPL course is a much tougher and more regimented pilot training course compared to the US FAA or ICAO/Canada one.
